Gabu's overall strength was neither weak nor particularly strong.
But in terms of sheer offensive power, his sonic waves easily ranked near the top.
Even Lucky Roux, who had the strongest defenses, would go limp for a while if they hit him head-on.
So what kind of monster was Enma?
He had taken two of Gabu's full-power sonic blasts and still acted as though nothing had happened!
He had even spouted that nonsense about a "masseur"!
They had never seen anyone like him in their lives!
Shanks's expression grew even darker than before.
He had watched Randall crush his flying slash with his bare hand.
Ace sat on the ground, watching with a grin.
He absolutely loved seeing Shanks and his crew get put in their place.
"Go, Mr. Randall! Knock them all down!"
He cupped his hands around his mouth.
At his words, Shanks and the others all turned to look at Ace.
Ace froze.
Randall covered his face, speechless.
You... what am I supposed to say to you?
You're deep in enemy territory right now.
And what do you do?
Instead of trying to keep a low profile,
you shout at the top of your lungs, as if you're afraid they won't notice you.
Still a reckless rookie, all right.
Benn Beckman's eyes shifted.
Judging by the strength Randall had just displayed, beating him would be incredibly difficult.
But he really did seem to care about Ace.
Could we use that?
He looked at Shanks.
Shanks would have to make the call on this.
Shanks caught Benn Beckman's look and immediately understood what he meant.
But Ace was his captain's son, after all. He did not want things to turn so ugly.
If they really took him hostage to threaten Randall, there would be no repairing their relationship
